To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" Some uncomphmentary allusions to Argyll's fair hair and low stature are contained in the hue-and-cry said to have been issued after the missing dog ; for the document runs, ^^ Whereas, ane cutt lugged, brounish coloured Mastiff Tyke, called Watch, short Iq^ed, and of low stature, " etc. It concludes with an oflrer of £s^^ Sterling for his apprehension — the same sum as had been offered in the case of the Earl. ^ Meantime the latter succeeded in reaching a place of security. The safest place o...f refuge would have been in the Highlands among some of his loyal clansmen ; but the attempt, which was certain to be made to apprehend him, would in that case have undoubtedly occasioned disorder and bloodshed. To avoid such a contingency he determined, in accordance with the advice of his friends, to make his way to London. There the extraord- inary influence and audacity of Shaftesbury would procure protection for such a prominent supporter of the Protestant interest. He would have liked to travel with such expedition as to arrive before the news of his escape had reached London, but he found this to be impract- icable.
